A solid shot fired by HMS Linnet crashes into the poultry cage aboard USS Saratoga. An enraged gamecock emerges from the wreckage, flies into the rigging and alights, facing the British, thundering an unambiguous challenge. The rest is history, and evermore would US naval vessels named Saratoga be "The Fighting Cock."PrairieAdventurehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06466447251827774900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684531976778247960.post-72021486057320482832015-11-06T05:14:01.186-08:002015-11-06T05:14:01.186-08:00Yup, things change.
